Aerial View:
Playlist
from March 17, 2015

Aerial View was WFMU’s first regularly-scheduled phone-in talk show. Hosted by Chris T. and on the air since 1989, the show features topical conversation, interviews and many trips down the rabbit hole. Until further notice, Aerial View is only available as a podcast, available every Tuesday morning. Subscribe to the newsletter “See You Next Tuesday!” and find tons of archives at aerialview.me.
(Visit homepage.)

Tonight, for the first time ever, my show will use Scientology practices, including the ACTUAL Oxford Capacity Analysis AND L. Ron Hubbard's own affirmations (or incantations), to put WFMU "On the Bridge" to "Going Clear" of our money woes and freeing our body Thetans (all of whom we expect a pledge from)!

Aerial View is the ONLY WFMU show during this year's Fundraising Marathon to offer this service! My MC and I will be staring at Ken Freedman's black velvet L. Ron Hubbard portrait (above) and ignoring all Suppressive Persons and Potential Trouble Spots.

Please help us SURGE toward our goal: offer your monetary vote of confidence for my show. Many of you have yet to take the plunge and pledge - I'm asking you to weigh in tonight. Let me know you'd like Aerial View to stick around. Only YOU can "Keep Needle In This Area"!

The Aerial View Premium this year - yours for a pledge of just $75 or more - is the 4th edition of the Aerial View lighter. This - like the previous three lighters - is a limited-editor, only available this year during the Marathon. Then it will be retired.

The 2015 Edition lighter has a beautiful goldtone finish and features the Chris T. "Ace Face" illustration by Two-Fisted Titan of Gusto Jack "Hot Wahini" Taylor. Check it out:

If you've been enjoying this newsletter and the kickass radio show that accompanies it, please pledge by calling 800-989-WFMU or going to wfmu.org. And remember: you can also adopt me!

There's also a DVD of one of my favorite Charlie Chaplin films, The Gold Rush. You can be in the running for any of these for a pledge of just $20 or more. But you can't be a winner if you don't pledge to Aerial View!

Last weekJim the Poet of Sportsy Talk joined me as we paid tribute to the film Idiocracy and he threw balls at my balls so I could atone for my initial lack of support for a sports talk show on WFMU. I'll admit it: I WAS WRONG! And let me add OW! MY BALLS!

The thing is, if you'd just gone on with the affirmations, the Scientologists wouldn't necessarily been terribly upset. Heck, they might've seen it as advertising. But this conversation is gonna upset them. So, Philip from Brooklyn might have stirred the pot unwittingly...

At their complex the Gold Base, also called the Int Base, south of Hemet, CA, they tried acting like their property was just expanding because it's Scientology world by planting flowers outside their property & got in legal trouble for encroachment.

Don't be scared! The tech says you're supposed to be intimidated by the Church, so if you are you're letting the tech work

I was invited to see “Modest Mouse” play at a very early gig of theirs in Seattle in the 1990s. Friends preferred to stay at home with some rambling Japanese mental case artist who just would ramble and berate me and mention his .22 caliber gun every so often. He also had rotting cabbage in his fridge. So many reasons I should have gone to see “Modest Mouse.”

love when roger moore drops the cards and they are all 'the lovers' - he must have bought a LOT of decks of tarot cards to pull that off.

I love the Bond movies. They're showing them all in order on tv again, and heck, I'm watching again. Doesn't matter that I have them all on DVD, doesn't matter how often I've seen them, I'm still drawn in.

Chris T., you should have played Harry Chapin’s “Cat’s in the Cradle” when that kid was around. I mean, that kid was clearly abandoned, right>

Dalton is probably the one that was the closest to the Bond of the books. Craig is a close second in that regard, with Connery coming third. (This is not my criteria for judging fave Bonds, but I'm just saying that this is how it goes.)
